Maple Specialist Arena Event!
This summer’s update will be revealed on June 15! An event called the Maple Specialist Arena will be held in Korea in the Nexon Arena. Well technically the video talks mostly about how there’s gonna be quiz show that will test how well you know MapleStory but I doubt they’re gonna waste the chance to show off what we’re getting.
340 people will be invited, based on a random draw of everyone who signs up to participate. 10 players who make videos about why they are a Maple Specialist and post them on YouTube with the #메잘알ARENA hashtag will also be invited!
